It is a game of skill that requires fast reflexes and good timing. Snake is a good game for children or adults. Online play usually allows you to choose a difficulty level, too.

Tips & Warnings
Every time you successfully pick up a star and continue, your snake will grow longer, making it harder to turn around quickly or backtrack.
More extensive versions of Snake, like the one at Miniclip, usually offer more options.
If you've never played Snake, it can be easier to start with the simple version before you move onto a fancier one.
